Studio to 3-Bedroom Residences in DLRC, Dubailand
From AED 666,000 · 50/50 & 60/40 Payment Plans · Handover Q3 2028
A library-inspired residential development featuring a two-storey library, Reading Lounge, Writer's Room and rooftop amenities.
Overview
The Archive is a new residential tower by Imtiaz Developments at Dubai Land Residence Complex (DLRC), Dubailand — studio to 3-bedroom apartments starting from AED 666,000, with a choice of a 50/50 or 60/40 post-handover payment plan, and handover targeted for Q3 2028.
The honest read: this suits two different buyers for two different reasons. For an end-user, it's a distinctive place to actually live, built around a real library concept rather than another generic gym-and-pool tower. For an investor, it's an entry point into a fast-developing part of Dubailand at a studio price point under AED 700,000, from a developer with over 30 years and 2,000+ delivered units — with handover four years out, so this suits a payment-plan and mid-term hold strategy more than an immediate-yield play.

This is the one thing that genuinely sets The Archive apart from other Dubailand launches — verified from Imtiaz's own material, not marketing language added by us.
The building's actual arrival experience, not a lobby with shelves added on — wrapped by a spiral stair.
A real, working collection, not a styled prop shelf.
A quieter space off the main library for residents who want to sit without company.
A private desk room with a door that closes, for residents who want to work or write undisturbed.
A rooftop space with fireplace and deep seating for guests, plus an outdoor firepit.
Extends the same idea outdoors, across the building's rooftop terrace.
Amenities
A dedicated fitness space built under Imtiaz's 'Raw Theory' wellbeing concept.
Separate adult and kids' rooftop pools, plus a rooftop terrace garden.
For evenings residents host guests or watch a film outdoors.
A dedicated play area for children and a purpose-built area for pets, plus floating cabanas and a mini golf course.

Why Buyers Are Looking Here
Starting from AED 666,000 for a studio — one of the lower entry points currently available for a new-launch Dubai tower.
Choose 50/50 standard (50% during construction, 50% on completion) or 60/40 post-handover (40% spread over 3 years after handover, 3.3% quarterly).
A library-led concept with real, verified amenities behind it — not just a rendering.
5 minutes from Dubai Academic City and Dubai Silicon Oasis, with Global Village, IMG Worlds, and central Dubai destinations all within a 10-20 minute drive.
Q3 2028 handover means this is not an immediate rental-income strategy — it suits a payment-plan and capital-appreciation approach. Imtiaz hasn't published a total unit count for this tower, so I can't tell you how quickly any given layout will sell out; ask me for the latest availability before deciding.
